Project 365 – Day 329: Chairs and stairs

November 24 2012

We had our first taste of winter today with some snow falling late morning. Unfortunately I was inside the restaurant having brunch at the time else I would have probably got a picture. Anyway, it wasn’t nice fluffy snow and didn’t settle so I wouldn’t really call it our first snow fall.

It still wasn’t that great out when we finished brunch and with quite a strong cold wind, we decided to venture into the RÉSO tunnel system between the Montreal World Trade Center and the Palais des Congrès.

I didn’t see any sign, but I believe the metal chair sculpture is by Michel Goulet. The artist has quite a few art installations around town. I covered his other chairs in a previous post.

The entrance from the RÉSO to the World Trade Center is one of my favorites and despite shooting it before, couldn’t resist taking another shot.

The final 2 shots for today were taken in the Palais des Congrès.
